Overview
Girls Inc. of San Diego County inspires girls to be strong, smart, and bold by providing hundreds of girls with life-changing support and real solutions to the unique issues they face. By providing no-cost, research-based programming the organization helps girls in the county overcome gender, economic, and social barriers so they may see college as attainable, resist peer pressure and explore professional fields in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) that have to-date been nontraditional for women. Led by trained professionals who mentor and guide them, girls receive the right tools and support in a safe, girls-only environment with peers who share their drive and aspiration. Programs, workshops and one-day events are delivered to high-need girls at no cost, while fee-based programs are made available to all girls in order to generate funds that subsidize no-cost programming. Founded originally in Vista, Girls Inc. of San Diego County began its work 50 years ago and continues today as an affiliate of Girls Inc. national. As a non-profit organization, it depends on individual donors and grant opportunities to sustain these programs.
